CONFERENCE THE THEOLOGY OF WORK AND THE DIGNITY OF WORKERS FOREWORD DAVID L. GREGORYt On All Souls' Day, November 2, 1987, Cesar Chavez, founder of the National Farm Workers Association-later, the United Farm Workers ("UFW")-discussed the evils of pesticides with a standing-room-only audience at St. John's University. Despite sharp disagreements between their union and the UFW in that era, even officials from the International Brotherhood of Teamsters joined the crowd in applause and lauded Chavez for his moving words. Afterward, Cesar told me that his brief sojourn at St. John's had been one of the most gratifying, engaging days he had enjoyed in years. A quarter-century later, on March 18 and 19 of 2011, St. John's was the site of another landmark event: the Conference- and subject of this Symposium Volume of the Journal of Catholic Legal Studies-"The Theology of Work and the Dignity of Workers."' Clergy, scholars, union representatives, and attorneys from diverse-even divergent-perspectives gathered for dialogue and exchange regarding the singular adversities facing workers around the world today.

    Proceedings of the New York Encounter 2018 An “Impossible” Unity An “Impossible” Transcriptions by Karen Kaffenberger Copyediting and layout by Deep River Media, LLC Human Adventure Books An "Impossible" Unity Proceedings of New York Encounter 2018 Crossroads Cultural Center This edition © 2018 Human Adventure Books An “Impossible” Unity We naturally yearn for unity and long to be part of a real community: life blossoms when it is shared. And yet, we live in an age of fragmentation. At the social level, we suffer profound divisions among peoples and religions, and our country is ever more polarized along ideological lines, corroding our unity. At the personal level, we are often estranged from our communities, family members, and friends. When we discover that someone doesn’t think the way we do, we feel an embarrassing distance, if not open hostility, that casts a shadow on the relationship. As a result, either we become angry or we avoid controversial issues altogether, and retreat into safe territories with like-minded people. But the disunity we see around us often begins within ourselves. We are bombarded by images of what we are “supposed” to be, but they generally do not correspond to who we really are. In fact, our truest self seems to escape us. The full scope of our humanity, with all its vast and profound needs and desires, may suddenly emerge, elicited by memories, thoughts or events, but usually quickly fades, without lasting joy or real change. And unless our relationships are rooted in the common experience of such humanity, we don’t even have real dialogue; we just chat, gossip, text or argue.
